Abstract
SHS investigation development is considered from the geographical and historical viewpoint. 3 stages are described. Within Stage 1 the work was carried out in the Department of the Institute of Chemical Physics in Chernogolovka where the scientific discovery had been made. At Stage 2 the interest to SHS arose in different cities and towns of the former USSR. Within Stage 3 SHS entered the international scene. Now SHS processes and products are being studied in more than 50 countries.
Abstract
Practically, the engineer’s deal with a lot of problems that can be expressed
mathematically by ordinary differential equations (ODEs). These ODEs can be solved
using both direct and iterative methods. The latter is popular as, in this case, the
solution techniques are based only on the basic arithmetic operations. In this chapter,
at first, we studied ordinary differential equations. Secondly, fundamental theories for
the solutions of these differential equations are discussed. Then, various numerical
solution techniques are explained in this regard. At the end of each technique,
solutions to various engineering problems are discussed.
Keywords:
